Nickelback - No Fixed Address Album Lyrics

Million Miles An Hour

Take one of those and two of these
Then watch the walls begin to breathe.
I can taste the colour of the lights
Wings are growing out of me
The floor is floating underneath
I can see the future burning bright,
Future burning bright.

The ceiling has us mesmerised
It feels like we could never die
Heading for the dark side of the moon
As we drift off into the sky
Invincible and so alive
Ten feet tall and f*cking bulletproof
Insanity is setting in
Reality is getting thin
The universe just started slowing down
Yet suddenly we're travelling

A million miles an hour
A million miles an hour
We're going a million miles an hour
A million miles an hour

When shadows all start breaking free
No longer held by gravity
How did we get so far from the ground?
Speaking to the galaxy
Received and sending back to me
I can finally hear the speed of sound,
Speed of f*cking sound.

I like this everlasting pill
'Cause time itself is standing still
Why's the room still spinning just the same?
Turn off your phone so no one calls
'Cause you and I are tripping balls.
I can still hear ringing in my brain
Insanity is setting in
Reality is getting thin
See no signs of ever coming down
And suddenly we're travelling

A million miles an hour
A million miles an hour
We're going a million miles an hour
A million miles an hour

Insanity is setting in,
Reality is getting thin
The particles are dancing all around
I can't deny the hardest thing for me
Is finding time to finally breathe
See no signs of ever coming down
Another wave is coming in

A million miles an hour
A million miles an hour
We're going a million miles an hour
A million miles an hour

Edge Of A Revolution

Head high, protest line
"Freedom" scribbled on your sign
Headline, New York Times
Standing on the edge of a revolution

Hey, hey, just obey.
Your secret's safe with the NSA
In God we trust or the CIA?
Standing on the edge of a revolution

Yeah, we're standing on the edge of a revolution
Revolution, revolution, revolution

No, we won't give up, we won't go away
'Cause we're not about to live in this mass delusion
No, we don't wanna hear another word you say
'Cause we know they're all depending on mass confusion
No, we can't turn back, we can't turn away
'Cause it's time we all relied on the last solution
No, we won't lay down and accept this fate
'Cause we're standing on the edge of a revolution

Wall Street, common thief
When they get caught they all go free
A brand new yacht and a finders fee
Standing on the edge of a revolution

Same shit, different day
Can't keep fed if I can't get paid
We'll all be dead if the shit don't change
Standing on the edge of a revolution

Yeah, we're standing on the edge of a revolution
Revolution, revolution, revolution

No, we won't give up, we won't go away
'Cause we're not about to live in this mass delusion
No, we don't wanna hear another word you say
'Cause we know they're all depending on mass confusion
No, we can't turn back, we can't turn away
'Cause it's time we all relied on the last solution
No, we won't lay down and accept this fate
'Cause we're standing on the edge of a revolution

We'll all be dead if this shit don't change
Hey hey hey hey

What do we want? We want the change
And how're we gonna get there? Revolution
What do we want? We want the change
Standing on the edge of a revolution

What do we want? We want the change
And how're we gonna get there? Revolution
What do we want? We want the change
Standing on the edge of a revolution

No, we won't give up, we won't go away
'Cause we're not about to live in this mass delusion
No, we don't wanna hear another word you say
'Cause we know they're all depending on mass confusion
No, we can't turn back, we can't turn away
'Cause it's time we all relied on the last solution
No, we won't lay down and accept this fate
'Cause we're standing on the edge of a revolution

What do we want? We want the change
And how're we gonna get there? Revolution
What do we want? We want the change
Standing on the edge of a revolution

What do we want? We want the change
And how're we gonna get there? Revolution
What do we want? We want the change
Standing on the edge of a revolution

What Are You Waiting For?

What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Are you waiting on a lightning strike
Are you waiting for the perfect night
Are you waiting till the time is right?
What are you waiting for
Don't you wanna learn to deal with fear
Don't you wanna take the wheel and steer
Don't you wait another minute here
What are you waiting for?

You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You only living one so tell me?
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don't you be afraid if you fall
You only living one so tell me?
What are you, what are you waiting for?

Are you waiting for the right excuse?
Are you waiting for a sign to choose
While your waiting it's the time you lose
What are you waiting for?
Don't you wanna spread your wings and fly?
Don't you wanna really live your life?
Don't you wanna love before you die?
What are you waiting for?

You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You only living one so tell me?
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don't you be afraid if you fall
You only living one so tell me?
What are you, what are you waiting for?

Tell me what your waiting for
Show me what your aiming for
What you gonna save it for?
So what you really waiting for?

Tell me what your waiting for
Show me what your aiming for
What you gonna save it for?
So what you really waiting for?
Everybody's gonna make mistakes
but everybody's got a choice to make
Everybody needs a leap of faith
When are you taking yours?

You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You only living one so tell me?

She Keeps Me Up

She's got me nervous
Talkin' a hundred miles an hour
She's more than worth it
I swear she smells just like a flower
I'd fall to pieces if I went anywhere without her
I love when she says "what's wrong with right here on the counter?"

Funky little monkey, she's a twisted trickster
Everybody wants to be the sister's mister
Coca-Cola rollercoaster
Love her even though I'm not supposed to.

Funky little monkey, she's a twisted trickster
Everybody wants to be the sister's mister
Coca-Cola rollercoaster
Love her even though I'm not supposed to.

She keeps me up (I keep you up)
She keeps me up (I keep you up)
All night (All night)
All night (All night)

She keeps me up (I keep you up)
She keeps me up (I keep you up)
All night (All night)
All night (All night)

I need her so bad,
Sometimes I feel like I can taste it
This evil romance
So good I never wanna waste it
I can't trust my friends
'Cause she's what everybody chases
I know where she's been
'Cause it's on everybody's faces

I never wanna have to slow down
Got to be a better way to come down
I've gotta stay awake some how

I never wanna have to slow down
Got to be a better way to come down
I've gotta stay awake some how

Make Me Believe Again

Before this hits the ground,
Before this fades away,
I wanna let it out
And I don't wanna wait
So don't you let me down
And don't you hesitate
Before I turn around,
Before I walk away,
I want you to make me
Make me
Make me

Make me believe again
In some kind of faith
Help me to see again
Before it's too late
'Cause forever is never
That far away
Make me believe again,
Make me believe again,
I can't pretend,
Make me believe again.

Make me believe again
In some kind of faith
Help me to see again
Before it's too late
'Cause forever is never
That far away
Make me believe again,
Make me believe again,
I can't pretend,
Make me believe again.

If you could take the dirt
And wash it all away
If you could say the words
That make me want to stay
Just tell me there's a chance
To Hell with all the blame.
If you could take my hand,
If you could lead the way,
I want you to make me,
Make me,
Make me

Make me believe again
In some kind of faith
Help me to see again
Before it's too late
'Cause forever is never
That far away
Make me believe again,
Make me believe again,
I can't pretend,
Make me believe again.

Make me believe again
In some kind of faith
Help me to see again
Before it's too late
'Cause forever is never
That far away
Make me believe again,
Make me believe again,
I can't pretend,
Make me believe again.

Satellite

I know it's late but something's on my mind
It couldn't wait, there's never any time
'Cause life slips by without a warning
And I'm tired of ignoring all the space that's between you and I
Let's lock the door behind us,
They won't find us
Make the whole world wait
While we

Dance around this bedroom
Like we've only got tonight
Not about to let you go
Until the morning light.
You can be my whole world
If I can be your satellite.

Let's dance around this bedroom
Like tonight's our only night
Dance around this room,
I'll be your satellite
I'll be your satellite.

Do you recall how long it must have been
Since any room held only you and me?
And every song that sings about it
Says that we can't live without it
Now I know just what that really means.
Let's lock the door behind us,
They won't find us
Make the whole world wait
While we

Dance around the moon,
You and I every night
Dance around this room,
I'll be your satellite
I can't believe the days turn into years
I hate to see the moments disappear
But tonight the sand is stopping
Take the hour glass and drop it
So we can stay inside this atmosphere
Dance around this room
I'll be your satellite,
I'll be your satellite.

Dance around the moon,
You and I every night
Dance around this room,
I'll be your satellite

Let's dance around this bedroom,
I'll be your satellite
I'll be your satellite
I'll be your satellite
I'll be your satellite

Get 'Em Up

His driver's license said James he went by Jim
A gangster wanna be and baby that was him
He stole his uncle's 44 last Friday night
Said if I wanted in we'd have to plan this thing just right
We'll need the gloves, we'll need the bags a couple masks
We'll need to steal a car with windows tinted black
He picked the nearest bank on main and 17th
We wrote down every line from every movie that we'd seen

Screamin'

This is a robbery now get down on the floor
We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah)
We want your cash open the safe get off the phone
Don't be a hero and you might just make it home
Get 'em up
Then get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get 'em up [x2]

Get 'em get 'em up

The fresh restored mustang small block 302
Drove by the bank a dozen times this afternoon
The only parking spot was half a bock away
Gave us time to practice just exactly what to say

Screamin'

This is a robbery now get down on the floor
We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah)
We want your cash open the safe get off the phone
Don't be a hero and you might just make it home
Get 'em up
Then get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get 'em up
Get 'em get 'em up

The only thing I wish that one of us had known
That it was Sunday and the god damn bank was closed
Too bad we didn't see the cops across the street
We dropped our guns and tried to run and there went all our dreams

Screamin'

This is a robbery now get down on the floor
We're here for all the shit that you don't need no more (yeah)
We wanted easy, straight and now we'll never know
Somebody call my mom and tell her I ain't coming home
Get 'em up
Then get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get 'em up

The Hammer's Coming Down

Where will you be when the sky comes down?
And what would you do if the strength was found?
Stand right beside me when the ground starts shaking
The only sound you'll hear is the breath we're taking
If there is one thing I can promise you
We'll see the light again

This is the calm before the coming storm
This is the red sky morning
Without warning now
This is the fight that we've been waiting for
And there's no sense in running
The hammer's coming down,
The hammer's coming

Once it's started, there's no turning back
And I'll be with you when the sun turns black
'Cause finding faith will always be the hardest
When you're standing in the heart of darkness
If there is one thing I can promise you
We'll see the light again

This is the calm before the coming storm
This is the red sky morning
Without warning now
This is the fight that we've been waiting for
And there's no sense in running
The hammer's coming down,
The hammer's coming

Holding on
We'll make it till the dawn
It'll be here before long
Holding on
If we can find the light
We can make our way back home

Holding on
We'll make it till the dawn
It'll be here before long
Holding on
If we can find the light
We'll find the light come on
We'll find the light come on
Hold on
If we can find the light
We'll find the light come on
We'll find the light come on

Miss You

I miss you
So, so, I do
So, so, I do
So, so, I do

I just woke up from a dream today
Time gone by but you still look the same
Felt so real to have you back with me
It's just too bad it's just another dream
Give me just one wish...

If I could give it all away
I'd do it just for one more day
I thought I had the time to wait
Now it's too late to tell you
That I

I miss you
So, so, I do
So, so, I do
So, so, I do
(I miss you, so, so, I do)
I miss you so much
God knows I do
I miss you so much
I miss you so much

After dark, laughin' in the rain
Silver heart locket on a chain
Well pictures fade and silver turns to grey
But the best of thieves couldn't take my love away
Give me just one wish...

If I could give it all away
I'd do it just for one more day
Trade it in for one more moment
Tell you what I never told ya
All the things I left unsaid
I meant to say before you left
I thought I had the time to wait
Now it's too late to tell you

I miss you
So, so, I do
So, so, I do
So, so, I do
(I miss you, so, so, I do)
I miss you so much
God knows I do
I miss you so much
I miss you so much

If there was some way, you know I would
I'd do it today, I wish I could
I call out your name, it does no good
I wish I knew what would

I... I miss you so much
God knows I do
I wish my wish was enough
Give me just one wish...

Got Me Runnin' Round

Wake up, my baby still looks amazing with no make-up
Damn it I knew the second that you came up
From underneath the covers say, I wanna meet your mother, your daddy, your sister and your brother
One week, the time it took you to tell me that you love me
But darling my shit ain't moved around the country
And no we're buying diamonds, saying it's only 20 karats it can't be that hard to find it baby
Your touch has made me a believer
Your love is all I ever needed
And she's the only one I'd follow for eternity

She's got me runnin' round and round
She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round
She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round

Light on sunset, can't imagine the two having fun yet
Baby maybe just wait cause I ain't drunk yet
As soon as I look over
Wait a sugar called at you a busy motor phoner
Don't be wrong girl
What you doing nothing wrong girl
Looks like we got another come along girl
If you ain't afraid to try it
You ain't really flying platinum long as I can be the platinum baby
Your touch has made me a believer
Your love is all I ever needed
And she's the only one I'd follow for eternity

She's got me runnin' round and round
She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round
She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round

[Flo Rida:]
Big stuff, big world, hopefully a very cute sexy girl,
big tits, big butt, love it when it goes like a lollipop in her mouth.
Yo (ma niggaz), (yo ma niggaz), yo, it's Flo Rida.
Yo, she got a big ass of a nice cupcake,
God gave her that for her queen sake, she can suck my pistol,
like a army military missile, she can speak spanish, english or french,
but I get hurt and wrench she she sucks my pistol.
So I have say yo, yo she got a big cupcake, take that for your good sake, yo (ma niggaz).

She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round
She takes light, the sunshine kissing me
Bittersweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round

Sister Sin

[Verse 1:]
Yeah the lady and me both agree some days we just don't get along
But the whiskey and me both agree maybe we both just better off
Well the preacher believes that I'll meet all of these demons hanging on
But we both know if they don't, I'll get lonely, need a few to tag along

[Pre-Chorus:]
Hanging here by a thread
Hear a voice inside my head

[Chorus:]
Lie me beside you every night
And dread the day you might be gone
She said "In case you hadn't noticed that
Played second fiddle to the bottle for a little too long (no)
And I'm not about to anymore"

[Verse 2:]
Now the wagon I'm in's paper thin
I think one wheel's coming off
Hey sister sin with that grin, where you been?
So kind of you to help me out

[Pre-Chorus + Chorus]

[Bridge x2:]
Fall from grace, kingdom come
Lying face down in the mud
Please don't hate, look don't judge
For I know not just what I've done

[Refrain:]
Lying face down in the mud
For I know not just what I've done
For I know not just what I've done

[Chorus x2]
